Bulwark of the Mountain

Bulwark of the Mountain is a lane support item that helps duos survive early lane patterns without sacrificing later carry protection.

The item's value is in creating a safer lane baseline for supports that want to absorb pressure, cover trades, and keep their ADC playable. It is not a major teamfight spike by itself: it is mainly an economy and protection foundation that prevents the lane from collapsing too early.

It is a logical option on protect supports or lane tanks when the main objective is to hold the 2v2 cleanly before mid game. It is less attractive if your plan mainly revolves around pure aggression, catch, or a very fast tempo ramp.
